non-petowners who visit and like to complain about pets:
1. They live here. You don't. 2. If you don't want their fur on your clothes, stay off the furniture. That's why they call it 'fur'-niture. 3. I like my pets alot better than I like most people. 4. To you, they are animals. To me, they are young 'uns who are short, hairy, walk on all fours and don't speak clearly.
Hi Cheryl, "The more people i meet the more i love my dogs"

Remember, dogs are better than kids because they: (1) eat less, (2) don't ask for money all the time, (3) are easier to train, (4) normally come when called, (5) never ask to drive the car, (6) don't smoke or drink, (7) don't want to wear your clothes, (8) don't have to buy the latest fashions, (9) don't need a gazillion dollars for college
AND!
(10) if they get pregnant, you can sell their children....

FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO HAVE PETS, THIS IS A TRUE STORY.
FOR THOSE THAT DON'T, IT IS A TRUE STORY.
The following was found posted very low on a refrigerator door.
Dear Dogs and Cats: The dishes with the paw prints are yours and contain your food. The other dishes are mine and contain my food. Placing a paw print in the middle of my plate and food does not stake a claim for it becoming your food and dish, nor do I find that aesthetically pleasing in the slightest.
The stairway was not designed by NASCAR and is not a racetrack. Racing me to the bottom is not the object. Tripping me doesn't help because I fall faster than you can run.
I cannot buy anything bigger than a king sized bed. I am very sorry about this. Do not think I will continue sleeping on the couch to ensure your comfort, however. Dogs and cats can actually curl up in a ball when they sleep. It is not necessary to sleep perpendicular to each other, stretched out to the fullest extent possible. I also know that sticking tails straight out and having tongues hanging out on the other end to maximize space is nothing but sarcasm.
For the last time, there is no secret exit from the bathroom! If, by some miracle, I beat you there and manage to get the door shut, it is not necessary to claw, whine, meow, try to turn the knob or get your paw under the edge in an attempt to open the door. I must exit through the same door I entered. Also, I have been using the bathroom for years - canine/feline attendance is not required.
The proper order for kissing is: Kiss me first, then go smell the other dog or cat's butt. I cannot stress this enough.

10 Reasons to Adopt A Greyhound They truly know the meaning of retirement. People will stare at your dog instead of you. They can curl up to the size of a ball if they want to They can expand to the size of the whole bed if they want to They don't bark thus keeping your neighborhood safe for burglars They don't bark so they won't annoy your neighbors They hardly shed. You can play their ribs like an air guitar They are the only dogs that truly know how to smile You can dress them up as reindeer for Christmas They are never mistaken for poodles. They look so funny when sitting that you'll never get tired of the sight. A greyhound in flight is the most amazing sight you can ever hope to see in your own backyard. Okay, okay, so it's more than 10 reasons. And that bothers you because....?
